Caries disease is a public health problem with a high incidence in Romania and also in economically developed countries. Daily use of computer is a habit among children, so we decided optimization cario-prevention in school children aged 6-12 using a software. We designed an interactive application as a "diary" in which the child answers questions like: have you brushed your teeth in the morning / evening / after eating sweets? have you had a tooth ache today? etc. Data is saved daily and the user profile is generating. The doctor is automatically notified by the application if the child tooth hurts. DMF-T index value for the study group was 2, the reason for dentist visit was pain (80.6% of case). The Pearson coefficient between the D component of DMF-T with the frequency of tooth brushing (-0,506), sweets eating (-0,595) and the doctor visits (-0,443) is statistically significantly (p=0.00). The software application “Dentist” by the child-parent-doctor feed-back mechanism is modeling the child behavior for oral health. The data obtained can be used as statistical data.
